Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €79,000 (€534/m²), the asking price is already well above the local €330/m² benchmark; allowing roughly €500/m² for the unspecified condition makes the effective cost about €1,034/m². The central location, garden, garage and 60 photos are positives, but the listing does not say whether the house is habitable or needs renovation.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely spacious, furnished 148 sqm home with a usable kitchen, multiple bedrooms, two bathrooms, terrace, private garden, garage and an attractive traditional courtyard setting. It appears immediately livable rather than a renovation shell, though the décor is dated and the house lacks a dramatic view or standout architectural wow factor.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
Our read of the photos, €500/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€17,000 – €29,000
Wiring, water and sanitary work of any kind, heating, air conditioning and gas go to a registered firm by law, and so do flues and the air openings for gas appliances. That labour stays in the bill. Yours is the stripping out, plaster, paint, floors, tiling and carpentry.
Labour is 61% of a renovation price on average and 67% at the median, across 191 items of the Emilia-Romagna 2025 public price list. Materials are the rest. An averaged price list, not a quote.
Materials you buy yourself carry 22% VAT; supplied by the firm doing the work they go at the 10% renovation rate. On a €30,000 materials bill that is €3,600 of extra tax.
Household wiring installed before 13 March 1990 counts as compliant if it has a main breaker with overcurrent protection, protection against direct contact and a 30 mA RCD. Having a firm bring the existing wiring up to that and certify it is the cheapest lawful route.
- Dated interiors and finishes would likely benefit from cosmetic updating.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high heating costs and possible efficiency work.
- The gallery does not clearly show all bedrooms and bathrooms or confirm the condition of the roof and systems.
Estimate from the listing and its photos, not a survey. Treat it as the starting point for your own quotes. An Italian builder's quote is normally written without VAT and without design fees, so add about a quarter to any figure a firm gives you.
The area around
Location score 38/100The area is in the eastern Piedmont plain between the Sesia valley and the Novara rice country, with flat farmland, irrigation channels and scattered woods typical of the lower Vercelli-Novara plain. The Sesia River runs a few kilometres east. Vercelli is the nearest city of size, with a historic centre and services; Novara is also within normal daily range. This part of the province is known for rice cultivation.
